Memento is an application that helps you to remember your daily highlights. Basically it's an audio diary or journaling app that helps you to record your daily activities and save them in a cloud. With a powerful searching engine you're able to find any memory that you've recorded. You can also share your recordings with your friends and family. Never forget the matter!

| Market Research:
- About 10,000 people in Kazakhstan are diagnosed with some type of dementia. The Ministry of Health predicts approximately 150-200 thousand patients in the country, and if they are identified, then the state will definitely think about this problem.
- In Kazakhstan, for 30 years of independence, the study of the problem of dyslexia has not yet begun. The country has never conducted research on the number of dyslexics, moreover, there are no recommendations for working with children with such a developmental feature.

The 1st user: Berik the dyslexic
Occupation: artist/ graphic designer
Age: 27
Gender: male
Location: Almaty, Kazakhstan
Education: Art School
Description: Berik is an artist who suffers from dyslexia. He likes to read books, but has to do it by audiobooks. Berik is a creative person that likes to take some quick notes, sketches while he has an inspiration. It would be really easy for him to record his ideas using audio journaling and after that to send the converted text to his clients.
The 2nd user: Galmyzhan Ata the pensioner
Occupation: pensioner
Age: 67
Gender: male
Location: Semey, Kazakhstan
Education: Polytechnic institute
Description: Galymzhan Ata is a pensioner with dementia. The doctors advised him to write down everything he had done earlier in a diary and reread it. But since Galymzhan gets tired of constantly writing down his thoughts, it is easier for him to record them on a dictaphone. However, listening to your audio recordings is completely inconvenient, so an audio journaling will help him with this, converting speech into text.
The 3d user: Alina the student
Occupation: -
Age: 19
Gender: female
Location: Nur-Sultan, Kazakhstan
Education: IT
Description: Alina is a student whose studies fell during the pandemic and online learning. Due to the huge amount of information, it is very difficult for her to constantly write notes of long lectures. An audio journaling integrated into the zoom will help solve her problem, recording the speech of the teacher and converting it into text.
- As a user I want to register in the app
- As a user I want to record a voice that will automatically be converted to text, so I don't have to write it down manually
- As a user I want to record lectures, so that I can listen to the recordings later
- As a user I want to view my old notes with the generated text and original audio, so I can look up what I need or remember something
- As a user I want to edit the generated text, so that I can correct possible errors
- As a user I want to delete notes that I don't need
- As a user I want to share records with others, so that others can view my records
- As a user I want to find a note by words, so I don't have to go through them all manually
- As a user I want to filter records by date, so that I can see what I need
- The application must be built in React
- The application must be hosted on Heroku
- The application must use Yandex SpeechKit voice recognition framework
- The application must use FastAPI for ML backend services
- There may be problems integrating the Yandex SpeechKit voice recognition framework
- There may be problems with recognition of names, company names and the like, which can frustrate the user
- Speech recognition performance may not be good enough that the user may prefer to write by hand rather than record the voice
